Methods of interpreting a plurality of time-series datasets generated from operation of hydrocarbon wells

Abstract

Methods of facilitating human interpretation of a plurality of time-series datasets generated from operation of hydrocarbon wells. The methods include obtaining the plurality of time-series datasets and displaying a vector map. The plurality of time-series datasets is generated from an operation of the hydrocarbon well and includes a first time-series dataset and a second time-series dataset, and optionally may include a third time-series dataset. The vector map includes a time axis and a plurality of points distributed along the time axis at a plurality of corresponding times. A color of each point of the plurality of points is defined in a plural-component color space and includes a first color component at a first intensity and a second color component at a second color component at a second intensity, and optionally a third color component at a third intensity when the plurality of time-series datasets includes a third time-series dataset.
